The dense table buried high-signal fields (name, identifier, connections)
under four 80-character Akka/gRPC URLs truncated mid-string. Replace with
a 2-column responsive card grid; cluster-node addresses now live in a
collapsed disclosure with copy-to-clipboard. Adds client-side filter,
empty/no-match states, kebab menu for less-frequent actions, and
@key=site.Id to keep Bootstrap collapse state from leaking across cards
when the filter changes.
Three new sections inserted into <OpcUaEndpointEditor>:
1. Authentication (between the existing Connection row and Timing)
- 'Enable Authentication' button when Config.UserIdentity is null
- TokenType select (Anonymous / UsernamePassword / X509Certificate)
- Conditional Username + Password inputs for UsernamePassword
- Conditional Certificate path + Certificate password for X509Certificate
- 'Remove Authentication' button
2. Advanced subscription (after the existing Subscription row)
- Subscription display name (text)
- Subscription priority (number 0-255)
- Timestamps to return (Source / Server / Both select)
- Discard oldest (checkbox)
3. Deadband filter (after Advanced subscription)
- 'Enable Deadband' button when Config.Deadband is null
- Type select (Absolute / Percent), Value number input
- 'Remove Deadband' button
EnableAuthentication and EnableDeadband helpers complement EnableHeartbeat.
All new fields use the existing RenderFieldError helper for validator errors.
82/82 CentralUI tests pass (the 10 new editor tests drove the design).
New deployment-wide options bound from the "OpcUa" section of appsettings.json:
- ApplicationName (default "ScadaLink-DCL")
- TrustedIssuerStorePath / TrustedPeerStorePath / RejectedCertificateStorePath
Empty paths fall back to Path.GetTempPath()/ScadaLink/pki/* so dev runs work
without explicit config — same defaults the hardcoded values previously used.
Wiring:
- ServiceCollectionExtensions binds OpcUaGlobalOptions to the OpcUa section.
- DataConnectionFactory takes IOptions<OpcUaGlobalOptions> and constructs
RealOpcUaClientFactory with the snapshot.
- RealOpcUaClient(globalOptions) replaces the hardcoded ApplicationName and
the three CertificateTrustList store paths in ApplicationConfiguration.
- Parameterless ctors on factory and client preserved for the existing test
suite (32/32 DCL tests still green).
OpcUaConnectionOptions record gains DiscardOldest, SubscriptionPriority,
SubscriptionDisplayName, TimestampsToReturn, plus OpcUaDeadbandOptions and
OpcUaUserIdentityOptions nullable sub-records.
OpcUaDataConnection.ConnectAsync copies all new fields from the typed
OpcUaEndpointConfig (including the Deadband and UserIdentity sub-objects)
into the OpcUaConnectionOptions record.
RealOpcUaClient:
- BuildUserIdentity translates TokenType into Opc.Ua.UserIdentity:
Anonymous → null, UsernamePassword → new UserIdentity(name, utf8(pass)),
X509Certificate → new UserIdentity(X509CertificateLoader.LoadPkcs12FromFile(...)).
- Subscription uses opts.SubscriptionDisplayName and opts.SubscriptionPriority.
- MonitoredItem.DiscardOldest is opts.DiscardOldest (was hardcoded true).
- BuildDataChangeFilter materializes a DataChangeFilter when Deadband is set.
- ReadAsync uses MapTimestampsToReturn for opts.TimestampsToReturn (was hardcoded Source).
X509CertificateLoader replaces obsolete X509Certificate2(string,string) ctor
(SYSLIB0057 on .NET 10). UserIdentity(string,byte[]) ctor used because the
(string,string) overload was removed in OPC Foundation 1.5.378.106.
Adds 11 new tests covering:
- Roundtrip of DiscardOldest/SubscriptionPriority/SubscriptionDisplayName/TimestampsToReturn
- Roundtrip of UserIdentity sub-object across all three TokenTypes
- Roundtrip of Deadband sub-object
- ToFlatDict/FromFlatDict for UserIdentity.* and Deadband.* dotted keys
- Validator rules: empty SubscriptionDisplayName, UsernamePassword w/o Username,
X509 w/o CertificatePath, Deadband Value <= 0, prefix propagation
Build passes; tests fail because serializer/validator have not been extended yet
(TDD red phase). Task B2 will implement the changes to drive them green.
Captures the design decisions from the brainstorming session:
- OpcUaEndpointConfig POCO + validator + serializer in Commons
- Single source of truth: both UI and site runtime consume the model
- Typed nested JSON storage (camelCase), legacy flat-dict fallback
- Shared <OpcUaEndpointEditor> Blazor component used twice
- Custom protocol removed from dropdown; Protocol field hidden
- Validation timing on Save only; per-field red text via ValidationEntry
Brings the Data Connections admin page up to the same UX standard as the
Topology page:
- Search box with dim non-matches (opacity 0.4, shape preserved)
- Toolbar: + Connection (disabled until a site is selected), Refresh,
Expand, Collapse
- Site context menu gains "Add Connection here" that navigates with
?siteId= so the form preselects + locks the Site field
- Form gains "Primary Endpoint" / "Backup Endpoint" h6 subsection
headers matching the SiteForm convention; Failover Retry Count moved
inside the Backup subsection
- URL renamed: /admin/connections (primary) + /admin/data-connections
(legacy secondary @page). Same dual-route treatment on the form
- Nav label: "Data Connections" -> "Connections"
- Adds DataConnectionsPageTests bUnit suite (6 tests)
Single /deployment/topology page replaces /deployment/instances (legacy URL
preserved as a secondary @page directive) and the /admin/areas* CRUD pages.
TreeView with Site → Area → Instance, V1–V7 visual guide (bi-building /
bi-diagram-3 / bi-box), always-visible empty containers, search dim, F2
inline area rename, and right-click context menus per node kind (Add Area,
Move to Area…, lifecycle actions, etc.).
Adds AreaService.MoveAreaAsync with cycle prevention, same-site enforcement,
and name-collision check at the new parent. Instance rename intentionally
out of scope — UniqueName is the site-side actor identity, requires its own
design pass.
Right-click a template now offers "New Derived Template" — opens
TemplateCreate with the parent pre-selected via a new ?parentId query
parameter. Composition rows in the tree drop the trailing
"→ TargetName" muted text; the kind glyph plus the instance name carry
enough meaning, and the composed template is one click away from the
row's right-click menu.
Template inheritance is set once at create time and immutable on update.
UpdateTemplateAsync now returns "Parent template cannot be changed after
creation." when the caller sends a parent that differs from the stored
value — server-side enforcement covers UI, ManagementService, and CLI.
TemplateEdit renders the parent as static plaintext rather than an
editable dropdown; TemplateCreate's parent picker is unchanged.
Templates page is now a tree-only browser; editing happens on a dedicated
TemplateEdit page. Drag-drop is replaced by context-menu Move-to-Folder.
TreeView gains Bootstrap Icons (chevron + per-kind glyphs), ancestor guide
lines, defined hover/selected/focus tokens, and Escape-dismisses-menu per
the new Visual Design Guide (V1-V7) in Component-TreeView.md.
The previous fix tried to defer page-side RevealNode to the second
render so TreeView's async sessionStorage load could finish first. In
practice Blazor Server didn't always fire a second OnAfterRenderAsync
on the page after the deep-link load, so the reveal never ran.
Real fix: change TreeView's storage-load to UNION the restored keys
with whatever's already in _expandedKeys, instead of REPLACING. That
way the page can call RevealNode whenever it wants and the storage
restore can't clobber the reveal regardless of completion order. The
page-side guard simplifies back to a one-shot reveal on first render.
Semantic note: if a deep-link reveal expands an ancestor that the user
had previously collapsed, the deep link wins. Intentional — the URL
expresses the navigation intent.
Both page.OnAfterRenderAsync(firstRender=true) and
TreeView.OnAfterRenderAsync(firstRender=true) ran concurrently:
- Page called RevealNode → added ancestor keys to _expandedKeys
- TreeView awaited treeviewStorage.load → replaced _expandedKeys with
the persisted set (often empty if user collapsed before navigating)
Whichever JS interop completed second won. When TreeView won, the deep-link
reveal silently lost. Gate the reveal on firstRender==false so it runs
strictly after TreeView's restore is done.
Without stopPropagation, dropping a template onto a folder fires both
OnDrop(folder) and OnDropOnRoot via event bubbling. The two async handlers
race on the same scoped DbContext, which is not thread-safe — the second
throws ObjectDisposedException and tears down the Blazor circuit. Surfaced
during browser smoke testing via JS-dispatched DragEvent sequence.
Smoke testing revealed two issues introduced by the modal extraction commit:
1. ErrorMessage / InitialName / TemplateName parameters on the dialog
components were passed as bare strings (e.g. ErrorMessage="_newFolderError")
instead of dereferenced C# expressions (ErrorMessage="@_newFolderError").
Razor treats unquoted-but-not-@-prefixed values to string parameters as
string literals — so the error block rendered the literal field name in
red whenever the modal opened. Non-string parameters (int/IEnumerable)
were fine since Razor treats those as C# expressions by default.
2. The Templates header + 4-button toolbar shared one flex row, but at
col-md-4 / col-lg-3 width the buttons overflowed into the right-column
empty-state area. Stack title above a full-width btn-group instead.
